Small, connected and international
About 99% of people in Bahrain use the internet, and a large expatriate population makes English content work well for many businesses alongside Arabic. Banking, hospitality and retail are strong categories. Content in English or Arabic; other languages on request.
Bahrain is a small island market where Manama, Muharraq and Seef are a short drive apart, and the causeway to Saudi Arabia brings many weekend visitors. Banking, hospitality, retail and events are the strongest categories.
